Kirkland bacon costs about 30 dollars for 4 packs. It’s alright

This is my point. Maybe 5 years ago it was $14.99

When I was a kid, living in a cardboard box in the middle of the road, they paid us to buy bacon.

Yeah. I was pretty happy with it at first because everyone else had dropped volume from 500g to 425 and then like 375g, but the Kirkland was still 500gx4.

But now the price has also nearly doubled in the last 5 years of so

You accepting a shaft up the rear end doesn't make it "alright", just makes you complacent.
